Problems with ftp_delete

I try to delete a file on a server. I´ve tried it with this code but its not working.

// get the directory
$file= chdir("../dateien/".$projekt."/".$bereich."/".$unterbereich);

$delete = ftp_delete($conn_id,$datei);

Could anyone help me out? Thanks

where the $datei 's come from ?

it coming from a form. It´s defined with something like data.swf

So, what you're trying to show with the $file variable ?

the directory where the file is hanging around

I know.... but what I mean is:

ftp_delete ( resource ftp_stream, string path)

So, you need to replace the "string path" above with your file path (which is $datei, right ?)

Remember, not only the file name, but the path. So if it come from a form, it should be

/var/www/html/files/data.swf

instead of

data.swf

Look at this example:

if this script named delete.php, and the structure of folder is

index.php
delete.php
other.php
datafile/data.swf

just use

/// delete.php ///
